ANOTHER CHANCE FOR BUSINESS

ANOTHER CHANCE FOR BUSINESS
The Farmers Alliance, which has al
ready done considerable for certain
cities OF northern Texas. has turned its
weather eye full upon San Antonio and
recognizing its central location as q dis.
tributing point, and Its possibilities,
have sent their head center TO look the
ground over with the view of doing
business here and centerlng operations
In San Antonio. 1t is proposed to make
this the collecting and distributing
point for the alliances for a radius Of
many miles around, and In this project
the people Of this city should take
lively interest. Not only so, the
question Of cotton and wool and paper
manufacture has entered into the
consideration OF the alliance, and
II San Antonio meets them half
way there is good prospect Of some
thing tangible In this direction. Dallas
owes her rank among Texas cities to-
day, very considerably, to the impetus
given her by the Alliance. The 800. 900
(land and money! given by that city was
the best investment IL ever made. 1t
secured the publishing house aud the
state headquarters Of the Farmers ALI
snce and conferred there the entire farm
er's interest OF all north and east Texas.
1t gives II machine shop and foundry,
an agricultural implement factory, and
will give 1t before this decade closes an
Immense cotton factory the looms and
spindles OF which will make music for
hundreds OF busy operatives. San Anto-
MO will ind 10 this opening now
presenting itself a first class oppOr-
tunity 10 extend her cramped legs and
do some tall travelling towards the next
ten mile house on the high way OF her
industrial progress. The Citizens COM
mIttee and the Board OF Trade will find
fine field for their fresh young ener-
gies 10 encouraging the agent Of the
State Farmers Alliance, DR.. Macune,
now in this city, and in calling the at
tention OF the city to the proposals made
or limited at, and setting forth in their
strongest, clearest, truest light the bene-
fits to be derived therefrom. San Auto
MO should receive with q warm well
come and q generous hand all who come
to her people with propositions look
ing to her future welfare and
increase. These propositions should be
carefully considered and calmly weighed
and the possible and probable advant-
ages fully canvassed and judged upon
their merits by the citizens committee
and the board OF trade, and then set be-
fore our people in their true light. TO
these representatives Of the city's COM
meroe and manufactures the LIGHT COM
mends this whole matter with all Others
Of similar character that may arise.

AN INTERESTING SITUATION.

The attempt to reach the Interna-
tionsl depot by street car line is now one
OF the lost arts. The hardy land navi-
gator who attempts to make the voyage
will wish before he has gone block
beyond San Saba street, tuat he had
started his pursuit OF knowledge under
difficulties In some other direction. The
city has torn up the street car tracks at
San Saba street and the contractor has
his material for paving lying around
promlscuous, with some four blocks
covered with the rough foundation
stones OF the roadway. Carriages, ON
nibusses, freight trucks and all wheeled
vehicles have been turned of West Com
merce street and compelled to founder
hub-deep In mud through unpsVed
streets TO the railroad tracks and
depots The city railway COM
pAny has enjOined the city from
removing It's tracks as proposed and so
stops the street paving. The contractor
and his forces stand Idle waiting for the
outcome, and some one has 70 foot the
